Yes, as long as you have a modern TV, you can connect this computer to your TV. It has 1 usable HDMI port on the back. It has 2 HDMI ports and a mini, but one of the ports and the mini are in the area for the on board video card and no the nice high speed one, so I assume they would not work (just going by what my IT BF told me). They may work, but I have not tried them. Also, I initially hooked mine up to a 20 inch TV that I have but switched back to a monitor because my TV did not have high enough of a refresh rate and for some reason would shut off any time the computer's screen went black, but that was an issue with the TV not the monitor. I have had mine for about a month and thus far it is a great computer.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it can be used as a monitor! But the PC only has DVGA and HDMI connections, NOT VGA! Also HDMI connection will give you slight problems when using a TV because it will bottleneck. You will have to force window all games before start up for HDMI to work. Or else the game will bottleneck at 2120p and crash when gaming on a TV through HDMI. I'm guessing if you have a really new TV with DVGA connections, you'll be good with no problems at 2120p. You can use both the DVGA and HDMI connections at the same time. So that you can use a TV and Monitor together. This will allow you have two screens.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You may be able to use an hdmi cable to connect your video card to a TV but your resolution is not going to be as good as your machine. Graphics will lose some of their sharpness but give a try and set the video card up for dual monitors.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you can, you just need a compatible cable. I recommend using DisplayPort but HDMI will work too.
